New video camera and NB filter

New video camera acquired and used for images from here on up. I now have an Astrovid StellaCam II, which is essentially a Watec 120N video camera. The CCD has 768×494 pixels, 8.4×9.8 microns. I'm using a frame grabber from ImperX to transfer the images from the camera to a laptop hard drive. Pixels are squared off in software to 8.4×8.4 microns for the images shown here. I'm also now using a narrower, 30 Å FWHM, filter centered on 514.5 Å.
